I think you need to travel through time, as well as some ways East, to
get where Bear is talking about. It appears in, for example, books by
Milt Gross in the 1920's, set in New York. But I agree (even though I
never lived in an apartment except for a year as a teenager, and after
getting married), it's not commonly used in New York today, AFAIK.
